ROTFL.

I'd also suggest that if you're playing with recursion, you shouldn't
need a loop counter. With recursion you should have a well defined
problem so that you know it won't run out of resources and you should
build checks into your algorithm so that it will throw an exception if
it's passed out of band data.
